Use synaptic? Like the icons? Read no farther
Whoever picked the default should put their thumb into their eye,
it won't matter, they are blind already
sudo cat /root/.config/gtk-3.0/settings.ini

the one to change is gtk-icon-theme-name ,, emacs is the traditional look, much better

A screenshot would be nice.

Didnt use emacs, but my particular icon setting (moka); yes- better.
Now, can you tell me how to change Synaptic scrolling to make it actually usable? I dont care for the gtk scrolling functionality of clicking on the scroll area and having the scroll advance in regards to where you click, instead of a "page". And worse in regards to Synaptic; the right-click into the scroll area doesnt scroll-page as it should, but scrolls at some ridiculously irritating slow pace; useless! I have to click into the package display and use arrow keys to scroll in Synaptic to get work done.

I tried, it seems you have to do incantations and sacrifice a couple witches to post a screenshot
The "help" is not very helpful
trying again,, seems file:/// is essential, if it works
file:///home/d/Pictures/Screenshot.png
and... it didn't worl

Upload your screenshot to an image site (such as imgur) and put the link inside of
[img][/img]
tags. Your link should end in an image format, such as .jpg.

Use the clearlooks-phenix-darkpurpy theme. Old style scrollbar restored. This is the magic needed thanks to fsmithred and the Xfce forum (long thread there on this topic).

And? what file might this be? Could we have a link to the thread? or a thread name?

Sure. Here is the link. I did the artwork and research about the scrollbar then fsmithred took over and integrated the default theme into the desktop-base package so I suspect that's where the file resides. Maybe he'll stop by to explain. There are other ways to fix the scrollbar explained in the Xfce thread but they weren't suitable for package installation.
